RWECS: What can be measured?
The devices measure the Time of the Heel-Impact and the Time of the Toe-off events, for each foot, step by step
And also the Contact Time and the Time spent on Air
for each foot could be calculated
From these times the Flight Time for each foot could be calculated step by step
The effective (visual) Flight Time is an average of the Right and Left Leg Using both legs asymmetry could be measured
The histogram of the Flight Time could be obtained for a given period of time. For both feet or for a single foot.
